Little Lord Fauntleroy

In "Little Lord Fauntleroy," transformation and redemption of a curmudgeonly Earl comes through the innocence of a poor boy living in New York City during the late 1800's. Devoted to his American mother, who has never been recognized by her aristocratic British father-in-law, Cedric Fauntleroy is summoned to England to assume the mantle of future Lord of the manor. The story of how little Cedric, or "Little Lord Fauntleroy," warms his old grandfather's heart is beautifully written and quite touching.
